Seven species were captured in undisturbed primary forest along the Olla Trail [Pierella luna, P. helvetia incanescens, Cithaerias menander, Euptychia arneae, E. libye, E. insolata, Taygetis andromeda]. Eleven species, including all but 1 of the species from the undisturbed habitat, were found in the more heterogeneous habitat along the Rio Claro Trail [P. luna, P. h. incanescens, E. arneae, E. hermes, E. libye, E. confusa, E. usitata, E. pseudoconfusa, E. hesione, T. andromeda, C. menander]. Two of the principal forest species, P. luna Fabricius and E. arnaea Fabricius, occur in viscous populations (repeated recaptures within a relatively small area), with a predominance of males among captured individuals. The population structure of C. menander Drury was extremely fluid (no recaptures), with mostly females captured and no behavioral preference for local high points. The other major understory species, P. h. incanescens Godman and Salvin, was not captured often enough to make any significant biological inferences. Results are discussed with reference to theories of competition, character displacement and ecological disturbance.1 aWhittaker, P., L.  u<Go to ISI>://BIOSIS:PREV198477025978 00771nas a2200133   4500008004100000020001400041245008100055210006900136300001200205490000700217520035200224100001800576856004300594       1984                        eng d  a0024-096600aNATURAL HISTORY NOTES FOR TAYGETIS-ANDROMEDA SATYRIDAE IN EASTERN COSTA-RICA0 aNATURAL HISTORY NOTES FOR TAYGETISANDROMEDA SATYRIDAE IN EASTERN  a102-1130 v383 aThe early stages and a larval food plant are reported for the 1st time for T. andromeda (Cramer), as studied in eastern Costa Rica. Various aspects of larval and adult behavior, including feeding and egg placement, are also discussed for this widespread Central American satyrid. The larval food plant is a grass, Acroceras zizanioides (Graminae).1 aYoung, A., M.  u<Go to ISI>://BIOSIS:PREV198579013949 00808nas a2200133   4500008004100000020001400041245008800055210006900143300001000212490000700222520038300229100001900612856004300631       1978                        eng d  a0024-096600aNOTES AND DESCRIPTIONS OF EUPTYCHIINI LEPIDOPTERA SATYRIDAE FROM THE MEXICAN REGION0 aNOTES AND DESCRIPTIONS OF EUPTYCHIINI LEPIDOPTERA SATYRIDAE FROM  a75-850 v323 aSpecies of Euptychiini (Lepidoptera: Satyridae) are discussed and/or described.
